Types of Nursing Home Neglect

Nursing home neglect can vary among individual cases, but the four primary types of nursing home neglect involve:

Emotional or social neglect, where the elder person is repeatedly ignored, left alone, or accidentally snapped at by an overstressed nursing home staff;

Personal hygiene neglect, where patients do not receive adequate help with laundry, cleaning, bathing, brushing their teeth, or other forms of hygienic practices;

Basic needs neglect, where the nursing home neglects to provide reasonable food, water, or a safe and clean environment;

Medical neglect, where the nursing home fails to provide adequate attention, prevention, or medication for concerns such as bed sores, infections, cuts, diabetes, cognitive diseases, and mobility concerns;
